• Last Kruger day

    April 17, 2025 in South Africa ⋅ ☁️ 24 °C

    Today was a very slow day, with literal hours without any animal sighting, quite surreal.
    And yet we had a couple of great encounters! So fear not, we have more pics to shove down your throat 😄

    In order of appearance we have:
    - A pregnant hyena who just wanted to chill on the warm road in the chilly morning.
    - An African fish-eagle in a tree.
    - The most random encounter with an African squirrel (they are everywhere but so skittish!)
    - A few adorable baby buffalos with their tiny knobbly horns.
    - A Malachite kingfisher (So tiny, Avron outdid himself with this one)
    - Another African fish-eagle, surveying a water hole, with a heard of hippos sunning themselves in the background.
    - A young lion and lioness engaged in their hours long ritual of 10 seconds of mating / 15 minutes snooze, rinse, repeat...
    That last one was a great way for us to close our Kruger experience, and head home for some celebratory cocktails (mango slushies from Wimpy made better with the addition of Malibu from the camp shop 😄)
